Biology

Lapatulllka [165]4 years ago

The PNS helps to maintain internal balance, or "homeostasis," by the Parasympathetic division of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). Sometimes referred to as the "rest and digest" system, the Parasympathetics keep our internal activities regular throughout the day and night, such as a steady heart rate, slow breathing, digestion of food, filtration of blood, and excretion of wastes.

kodGreya [7K]

Quiet metabolic activities account for about ________ of the average person’s daily energy expenditures
Valentin [98]

Quiet metabolism account for about 50% of the average person’s daily energy expenditures

A metabolism is a balancing act that involves two types of simultaneous activities: building up body tissues and energy stores (called anabolism) and breaking down body tissues and energy stores to get additional fuel for body functions (called catabolism)

Some of them are catabolic routes, such as glycolysis (the breaking of glucose), -oxidation (the breakdown of fatty acids), and amino acid catabolism. Others are anabolic pathways, such as those involved in energy storage (such as glycogenosis) and triglyceride synthesis (lipogenesis)

Metabolic pathways include the processes of producing and decomposing glucose molecules. A metabolic pathway is a chain of chemical reactions that feed off of one another.

An ecosystem engineer can cause a cascade of effects including abiotic and biotic changes.
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

O True

Explanation:

Ecosystem engineers are able to modify the surrounding environment, either by creating new habitats or modifying/destroying existing ones to adjust them to their needs. These species can significantly alter their environments, having a large impact on the species richness as well as modifying the availability of abiotic factors (e.g., water, space, etc) of a particular area. In certain environments, ecosystem engineers can even act as keystone species. Some examples of ecosystem engineers include, among others, beavers, woodpeckers, corals, etc.

The whale's flipper and tail flukes and fish fins are analogous structure as they have different structural formation but they perform the same function.

Flipper and tails are locomotory organs in the whale  and helps the whale in propelling similarly fins in the fish assist the fish in swimming. Both the strcutures have evolved differently and are made of different materials.
